Today's OneWord: Parrots
We go to the pet store, just in time to see a young woman with two parrots - one perched on each shoulder. We wonder aloud if she's a pirate, and when she hears our speculation, she laughs and turns to reveal the eyepatch. Instantly, you go red, and you begin apologizing profusely. But she tells us not to worry about it, that she gets those questions and comments all the time. "If I had a pirate ship," she confides in us, "I'd call it the Featherbrain."
